At CinemaCon earlier this year, producer J.J. Abrams explained that Julius Avery‘s upcoming movie Overlord, a sci-fi horror thriller set during World War II, is not a Cloverfield film. Abrams promised that a “proper” Cloverfield sequel is on the way, leaving us to wonder if Overlord truly is just simply a low budget, standalone thriller from Bad Robot Productions, or whether Abrams, the master manipulator, is trying to pull the wool over our eyes once again.

We’ll get one step closer to the truth before long, because a new report says that an Overlord extended preview is coming to IMAX theaters very soon.Read More »

Bad Robot dives into historical horror with Overlord, the World War II zombie movie that is probably not a secret Cloverfield sequel.

The Cloverfield Paradox, akaCloverfield 3, caught everyone off-guard when it unexpectedly dropped onto Netflix this week.

Don’t give up on the Cloverfield franchise just yet, folks.

Bad Robot and Paramount are working on a new film about D-Day, titled Overlord, based on J.J. Abrams and Billy Ray‘s (Shattered Glass) original idea. Ray, who directed the 2015 remake of Secret in Their Eyes, wrote the script, and Mark L. Smith (The Revenant) polished it up a little. Julius Avery (Son of a Gun) has signed on to direct the Abrams-produced World War II movie, which has a major supernatural twist.
